The Four-Post Lift with Standard Width and Extra Height
Built for garages with ample space and high ceilings, the BendPak HD-9EWT is perfect for accommodating high-rise vehicles. Unlike the narrower HD-9ST four-post lift, this model comfortably accommodates wide-body trucks and SUVs, eliminating concerns about scratching mirrors or doors. With a substantial 82 inches (208.3 cm) of rise from the runways, it lifts heavy vehicles higher, providing plenty of room for taller technicians to work underneath. Additionally, it offers ample space for parking high-clearance trucks and SUVs, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of taller vehicles.
The HD-9EWT incorporates dual-hub cable sheaves, which, despite being more expensive to manufacture, prevent premature wear on axles, sheaves, and cables, ensuring long-term durability. Its multi-level locking positions allow technicians to safely lock the lift at varied heights, eliminating the need to crouch or reach uncomfortably during maintenance. The electric-hydraulic power system provides precise control, allowing you to stop, start, and reverse your four-post lift with ease, thanks to conveniently located controls.
Each four-post lift is equipped with four lifting cables made from superior-grade stainless steel, each rated to handle 14,400 lbs. (6,532 kg). These cables are discreetly hidden within the post columns for both safety and a streamlined appearance. The integrated design routes all lifting cables, airlines, safety latches, and sheaves internally, further contributing to the lift’s sleek aesthetic.
Safety is a paramount concern for every BendPak lift. Four locks engage simultaneously as the lift is raised, and a backup locking system is in place to catch cable slack in the unlikely event of cable failure. Longer approach ramps and low runways are designed to make lifting sports cars and other low-standing vehicles easier than ever.
The HD-9EWT is a solid choice for both DIY enthusiasts and professional shop owners. The added ceiling clearance is particularly valuable in professional settings, providing ample space for lower-level vehicles. For anyone looking to solve vehicle storage problems while maximizing their space, the HD-9EWT offers a perfect solution.

It’s a functional four-post lift at a competitive price. The finish has some rough spots and the hydraulic pump is noisier than I expected. It works, but it’s not as refined as more expensive options.
Andrew Jackson –
This lift completely changed how I work on my vehicles. No more ramps and jack stands. The safety system gives me peace of mind and the whole unit feels overbuilt in the best way possible. Highly recommend.

Heather Johnson –
The lift itself is fantastic — heavy duty, smooth operation, great safety features. But assembly was a real project. Plan for a full weekend with help. Once it’s up, though, it’s perfect.
Rebecca Martin –
The lift itself seems solid and works well now that it’s assembled. But the installation was a nightmare — poor instructions, some bolt holes didn’t align perfectly, and I had to fabricate a couple of spacers. If you’re handy, you can make it work.
Carol Gonzalez –
Really like this lift overall. Sturdy, safe, and well-built. The only thing keeping it from 5 stars is the hydraulic fluid wasn’t included and the manual didn’t specify the type clearly. Minor issue for an otherwise great product.
Jonathan Torres –
This four-post lift is exactly what my garage needed. Installation took about a weekend with a buddy helping, but the end result is fantastic. Locks engage smoothly at every position and the lift feels incredibly stable. My truck sits up there like it’s on solid ground.
Catherine Collins –
Compared this to lifts costing twice as much at my buddy’s shop and honestly can’t tell the difference in build quality. Everything about this lift screams durability. The approach ramps, drip trays, and caster kit being included is a nice bonus.
Katherine Lopez –
Bought this primarily for double parking in my garage but ended up using it for service work too. The clearance underneath is great and the approach ramps make driving on easy. My wife can even load her car up without issues.
Cynthia Gomez –
Really happy with the quality and performance of this lift. Took almost a month to arrive though, which was frustrating. Once installed, it works flawlessly. Would give 5 stars if shipping was faster.
Samantha Kelly –
Finally got tired of crawling under my vehicles on a creeper. This lift changed everything. Setup was straightforward following the manual, and the quality of the steel and hardware is impressive. Hydraulic system is smooth and quiet.
Jerry Morgan –
I run a small side business doing maintenance for friends and family. This lift handles everything from sedans to light trucks without breaking a sweat. The powder coat finish still looks new after months of use.
Carol Wood –
Overall a very solid four-post lift. Build quality is great and it feels very safe. Only reason for 4 stars is the instructions could be much better — had to figure out a few steps on my own. But the lift itself is excellent.

Laura Kelly –
Six months in and this lift has been flawless. Use it at least twice a week for various projects. The hydraulic pump is quiet, the locks engage cleanly, and the runways have plenty of length for my extended cab truck.
Frank Peterson –
The lift is excellent quality and works great. However, the installation manual is poorly translated and some diagrams are hard to follow. YouTube helped fill in the gaps. Product itself deserves 5 stars.
Matthew Stewart –
Great build quality and solid performance. The approach ramps could be a little longer for low-clearance vehicles, but otherwise this is an outstanding lift for the price.
